For Elyse

I made a present for my one and only twin sister. I saw it over at MaryJanes and Galoshes and knew that I had to make one. Since we are currently 'homeless' so to speak and Jeff has requested that I quit making/purchasing things for our future home, I thought this would look great in Elyse & Stephen's bedroom. Stephen probably isn't as wild about the butterflies as I am ... but he's a good sport.
This is made entirely out of paper! My mom is bringing it when she goes to visit next week but here are some pics until then.






It's a good thing I'm in love with this wreath, cause I might have given myself a few 2nd degree burns making this. Hope you like it Leesey.

  3. That is so pretty. You should write a post about how you made it.

  4. Teresa, I didn't post a tutorial because there is already such a great one over at MaryJanes and Galoshes. You can follow the link I posted in the name of her blog. The only thing I did differently was use a 2" punch and a LOT more paper sacks. Glad you like it!

  5. This is so adorable! It makes me feel crafty just looking at it! (And by crafty I mean artsy crafty, not sneaky.)
